I now know it’s not water activated after Matt’s video at Meguiars. I just watched it again to verify. I made this video before his video came out and I had the assumption it was water activated.
68Camaro RS/SS We both learned something new today! Haha
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing I learned something new. Everyone has said its water activated. At least every video I've ever seen.
Michael Campbell Me too!
FAB Automotive Detailing Hey, check out Waxmode’s video on how he applies Megs HCW. The way he uses it makes you get INSANE beads! Very uniform and tight. Btw this is the best smelling wax ever lol.
Andres Rivera Yeah it smells good! I will check it out. I applied it with a wet wax applicator on my initial application. Did he do it differently then that?
It doesn't need to foam to work as a wax🤩shampoo foam good enough
Nice way for application, as lazy person im this is approved
Carlos Rivera Thanks! Yeah it is a good way to apply it quickly.
Please make another video with a totally stripped paint surface! It would be interesting to see what protection and beading is laid down just from the foam application!
j5ritzema I don’t think it would do much of anything without the base layer. I will keep that in mind and maybe do it in the future.
I found it worked great when 1st application I used it as a wax, got my applicator pad damp, not soaking wet! And did one panel at a time, spray just a little on the pad and apply and wipe it off. Hardly used any product at all and left a nice shine and water beads right off.
Matt Lawrence That’s exactly how I applied it the first time on the truck. At the beginning I showed the bottle and that’s all the product I used on the whole truck the first time. I do have a video where I applied it. It leaves reallly good gloss that’s even better the next day and slick. All around a good product. Thanks for watching
Now you're going to see a bunch of other videos out trying the same thing😎 It is fun trying different things to see if they work. It does look like it would be an easier way to apply the product. Great video, Brian👍👍 Oh & tell PapaSmurf second like😁😜😉🤪
IntervalePC I just thought it would be fun to test it! Definitely an easier way to apply it and apply it evenly. Thanks and I will let him know.
I got 16th 👍, 😉🙌😁..
Reminds me of Blue Pepto-Bismol! I am pretty sure Megs told Matt at OG it is not water activated. The water is used just to spread the product and help prevent streaking. That's a quick way to apply it...wait till tunnel washes start offering it (or something similar.)
BigOldDog Oh man I hate Pepto-Bismol! Haha Ok I though it was water activated my bad. Thanks for watching
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing Hey, you need to try Adams and/or CG's new SiO2 soap on that now...I have both and am going to try them on the Wife's traverse
www.chemicalguys.com/hydrosuds-ceramic-car-wash-soap/CWS21216.html
adamspolishes.com/wash-coat.html
I plan on trying my Mckee's SIO2 soap today. I want to buy the Adam's but I will wait to see what you think of it.
First like!!! Haha man this stuff continues to impress me. Definitely an easier way to apply it. Much faster. Great video man! 👍👍 I need to try this stuff already 😄
PapaSmurf918 Yea you were definitely first and awake early! Haha Definitely an easier and faster way to apply it. Thanks and yes you need to try it!
Haha I gotta work today man so I been up since 5am here. Lol man I'm thinking of maybe trying it in my dads BMW 🤔🤔 lol
PapaSmurf918 I am glad our shop is M-F. You should try it on the BMW
I love this video. I love your current videos as well and you make great content but I would love to see you get back to doing fun goofy stuff like this more often these days.
I appreciate the feedback and always looking for ways to keep people entertained!
Always fun trying new, out of the box ways of doing things. And in actuality, this is probably a better way to cover the whole vehicle
Camaro Time It is fun trying new things in a different way. I think it definitely covers the surface better.
Great video! Works well and for around 14.99 its a great deal!
The Reviewer408 Thank you! It is a great deal.
So many ideas with this product. Fist time I used it I washed the car with the foam cannon then rinsed it then when still wet I sprayed on the Meguiers and rubbed it in with a soft cloth. I then power washed it off and dried it with a leaf blower then used micro fiber bonnet on a buffing wheel and it came out great. The second time on a different car I used it like a conventional wax buffing it on and off. I was very hard to buff off the residue this way but it still worked. My first way worked best .
jack siscavage Yes there are several ways to apply it. My first video on it when I applied the foundation coat I found using a wet wax applicator and spraying into the applicator then applying like a traditional wax worked best for me. I didn’t have a hard time buffing it but your not the first person that has mentioned that. Thanks for watching
Always worth a shot!!
Andy's Auto Care Plus Yep and just fun to try!
That was fantastic . The best HCW video, on the web . Next, apply it to your house. One more thing , please destroy that soundtrack . Holy crap !
Haaa take care .
gkc booth Thanks! I’m thinking about using it on the windows of the house. Yeah it’s always hard to find a song I like or that I think listeners might like. Thanks man you have a good one too!
That's a unique idea. Truck looks really good. My local auto parts has this stuff I'll be picking up very very soon. Thanks for the video see yall tonight
Michael Campbell I thought it would be fun! Yeah I would pick some up and at least try it. See ya tonight
Although for fun it's an interesting concept, I'm a wash/wax product user and this might make a nice way to get real wax on my truck. Although it was for fun it would be interesting to see a followup. It would make getting good coverage much easier.
Very cool idea and something I have been wondering also. Man when you hooked the bottle straight up it sure mowed through the product lol. That has to be the easiest way to apply the HCW! Great video brother!
MeanBee392 Yeah I figured if anything it would be fun to try. Yeah it sucked the bottle down quick. Definitely a good way to apply it. Thanks
According to Meguiar’s is NOT water “activated” the water helps the product spread evenly. - Obsessed Garage speaking with Meguiars on this product..
Thank you for the information I apparently missed that on Matt's video. It's hard to hear everything on the videos I watch when you have young kids around. haha
Yeah I saw that video as well
Actually really impressive how it ran out the nozzle, a little goes a long way. This has ideas running in my head.
I was impressed as well for a product that isn’t meant to foam. I to have more ideas for this product. Thanks for watching
I dig these off the wall videos. Good stuff.
Awesome! Thanks
That was an interesting experiment, I wonder if it applies enough when it is diluted with the water? Your driveway will be protected for 2 months now lol!
Daytona 5.7 It was Interesting and fun to try. It seemed to work because it rained the next day and the beads were a lot more uniform then they were before this application. Protect the truck and protect the driveway all in one step! Haha Thanks
Lol.. I smashed the like button before I watched the video. When I saw the thumbnail I was like..yes!!!!
Leo H. That’s why i made this video! Nobody had done it and I thought it would be fun to at least try. Glad you liked it!
Idk man, if this is what you call “ not great” I’m freaking impressed. I will surely be doing this type of method on my new dodge.
Sal Gonzalez It does work but you use a lot of product this way. It’s always worth testing out.
A lot of videos on this product! The first time that I saw this product at the shop where I get my wheels and tires "Lazer Auto" in St. Laurent, (Montreal) I said, Hmmmmm, gotta try this!" After all I use their Ultra Quick Detailer between washes to keep the wax looking it's best. Geez, I should make a video and post it on my page. Cool video...I learnt something about this product. I hose down and hand wash...even though I have a pressure washer.
Allan Sonac Yeah there are a lot of videos on it. I like and think it works well. I rarely use the pressure washer on my cars. I usually only use it for review videos and cleaning the house.
I was hoping to see April come out and slip on the slippery driveway, not get hurt of course. Sometimes it's fun just to try something for the heck of it.
👍✌️🇺🇸
B Stewart ExecutiveCarCare Haha she can fall over anything and that Includes flat surfaces. It was fun and I did it for nothing more then that. Thanks
I absolutely love your ideas..
Al Barnhill Thanks!
Thats awesome man! Even though it didn't foam much..like you said..great way to apply the product.. it covers such a wide area... I have a metal roof on the house..It would be great for semi trucks..
MNpicker Yeah it was fun to try it in a different way! That would be a good way to apply it to a roof. Thanks
Excellent !!!!
This way its gets into all the areas :)
KBsToy Thanks! Yeah that is very true!
Imagine a high quality ceramic that you could spray on and walk away with spot free drying.
Tommy Sawyer That would be awesome!
These F11 ads are about to drive me nuts.
James M I agree! Unfortunately we don’t get to choose the ads on our channels.
F11 is no joke. Lol
Great video, I've been seeing a lot of videos on this product. One test I would like to see is how it protects against bugs and mostly bird droppings. Drives me nuts while I'm washing my wife's car, and just about done drying it, I find droppings on the other side. It's like they get a laugh out if it I swear.
Clifford Payton Thank you! I can tell you cleaning it is a lot easier and doesn’t get nearly as dirty as it did before. Haven’t had problems with bugs yet this year. Yeah that would drive me nuts also.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing I've been wanting to see some real action of this that I havent see yet. After applying product to hood, and rinsing, pop the hood and see how much water beads off and what is left to dry. This is the way I try to dry my hood and let's me wipe down the gaps between hood and fender.
Clifford Payton If I apply it again I will do that but I don’t know if I will apply it again. I have a lot of other products that I need to try.
That effort got you a sub! Id like to do something like that for spraying under the vehicle, probably gets overlooked way too often and probably more important too tbh.
zerocool Thank you and welcome to the FAB Family! Yeah the underbody is over looked and very important.
Congrats on 3k subscribers!!!
4Door Si Thank you!
That's a sweet looking truck,
ARCHIE MEGEL Thank you!
Good video. Good experiment. Now we know. It can be done but not worth doing. Nice job!
ron b Thank you! In the foam cannon it definitely makes it faster to apply and more even. Definitely not worth doing straight from the bottle.
Best video on UA-cam
Thank you I really appreciate that!
It's nice to see a great conditioned Dodge Dakota. Really nice shape :)
I use Meguiars NXT wax. I want to try this stuff really bad. I will need to buy some. I live in Sault Ontario, boarders Sault MI. We still have some snow left. So when it's gone, I'll be testing this product out. Nice video :)
Tyson Kurt Thank you! I actually just bought it last October. The original owner took great care of it. Yeah it’s definitely worth trying!
Why don't you try adding it to a snow foam?
Also to know the results you need to have the protection removed before you try it.
Fun video though and cool idea 👍
john vaines I plan on mixing with a soap and trying it. The truck has the initial application on it already. This was basically the spray and rinse method after the initial application.
Love this product and the cannon would be an great way to apply it, but you would be going through bottles way too fast.
police_state I agree! It does disperse it evenly but you use a lot of product.
Its not water activated stated by meguiars, the water washes away the components that help transfer the main ingredient onto the paint.
Freshdetail 808 Yes I have been told a few times already. I watched Matt’s video but must have missed that part. When you have kids around sometimes you miss stuff. Also I made this video before Matt’s Meguiars video.
I kno exactly what u mean 😂 hey that looks like a fun way to apply it tho🎯😂
Freshdetail 808 It’s a good way to apply it and get even coverage IMO. Just not straight out of the bottle.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing Hey u should check out a company that makes a very good ceramic coating in a liquid wax form 30% sio2. Ethos ceramic wax 🤙🏼💣
Freshdetail 808 They were suppose to send me some products but I never got any.
So after the first coat was the hydrophobic how did it beed the water
Richard Vacanti It was very hydrophobic and it really does stay clean longer and makes it easier to clean when washing. I really like this product!
I am trying to revive a 92 camaro paint till we can afford a new paint job. Restoring it for my 17 yr olds 1st car. I am a total newb with paint, not what I did in the military. I have been putting on F11 on each piece after I have 0 paint color coming off. I still have to learn to feather some peeling clear coat. When I am done I was thinking about using the Meguiar's you did on top of the F11. Would the 2 offset each other? Thanks and am now subscribing to you.
anthony kimball I have never used F11 before! This product is meant to be used as a topper for wax, Sealant and coatings. I used it as a stand alone on my truck and it did a great job for over a month. Not bad for the price IMO. Thank you and welcome to the channel!
Its about enjoying detailing and having fun :)
KBsToy Yes it is! Thanks
I seriously want to apply wax this way. A wax as u dry would be sweet. Then just wipe it off with a towel and waxed in minutes
The best way is with Griots Garage Foaming Polygloss. Foam it on and let it dwell for 5 minutes then rinse off and dry. It lasts a couple months
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing do you have a video on the Griot's?
I’ve always wondered what it’s like to put neat snowfoam in a cannon (not diluting or adding water)
Snowfoam straight makes the foam crazy thick but uses a ton of product. This is not a snowfoam it was just for fun!
Would be interesting to see
Zach Leeson I will be trying it straight from the bottle soon when I use Griot’s Garage new foaming system.
Cool view at 4:00 mins. Not much foam but its got a mirror finish for sure.
Biggie Fitz Thanks! Yeah it leaves the paint glossy.
What if you added a little soap in the cannon to give it something to stick to? nothing wrong with the experiment just got to prefect it. Nice one FAB
HOOF HEARTED I thought about that after I made the video! Yea it was just fun trying it out. Thanks
I would think that would leave streaks. Interesting video anyway.
MrStilltipping3 I was surprised I didn’t streak and it did leave some protection behind. Thanks I thought it would just be fun to try.
Haha well it was worth the try... nice job
DSW Joyride Productions Yeah I like to try things in different ways. This isn’t expensive so it wasn’t a loss to try it.
Thanks for the video Brian you gave me a great idea . O and if it breaks your foam cannon the next one's on me.
Not looking for it to foam I'm looking for ease of application to apply the product.
Chuckwick Simmons You are welcome! It definitely works good to spread the product quickly and evenly just not straight from the bottle. I just bought a new cannon anyways. Thanks though. I have you a shoutout in my Griot’s Rubber Cleaner video you should check it out.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing 🤝🏾👌🏿💯
HCW doesn't have surfactants like a soap does so it wouldn't foam no matter how good your foam cannon is. Cool video though. I was wondering if this would be a good way to do maintenance applications.
M. K. Yeah I knew it would t also but it was fun to try. Thanks! It actually is a great way to do a maintenance coat quickly.
I dont think it would mess up your foam cannon since i dont think its an actual ceramic coating and it wont harden in your cannon. Idk
Isaiah Martinez It did not harm the cannon at all!
Nice to find out about the water activation. If you adjust the kanibler pin on the cannon it might foam better. Just sayin'. :)
kawtriples It’s set all the way to negative! I bought a new one and testing out soon.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing I think you missed my joke but that's ok. Haven't you ever heard the Kanibler pin joke. I thought that was a universal joke that everyone who is interested in cars has heard. If you have never heard of it before, ask Hoof if he can get you a new kanibler pin for your foam cannon. Being older than you he might have heard of it before. :)
kawtriples Yeah I definitely missed it! Haha I will have to ask the Hoof.
Nice video! You think its okay if i apply first nu finish polish and then that meguairs hybrid ceramix spray? Or just go directly to meguairs? First time owning a car here. So im new to detailing :)
Jun Glenys Albano Thanks! Yes You can apply the NuFinish first and use the Meguairs as a topper.
So what was the goal actually? Were you trying to make the process into a 2 step, spray & rinse?
North Florida Mobile Detailing It was just for fun! I wanted to see if it might foam so you could foam the whole vehicle then rinse making a quick and easy application.
You're sweating in 70°???? 😂😂😂 You wouldn't last in Texas HA HA! We start sweating at 90 or above and wear sweaters below that lol!
Detail Enthusiast 😂 yeah I am a sweater. Here in the summer we usually are in the mid to upper 90’s and I sweat like crazy. Thanks
New sub
Mariano Calderón Thanks and welcome to the FAB Family!
Love it!
drdyno Thanks!
Thanks for the vid , I think I will try putting 3oz in a cannon , how many oz of water do you think would be the best amount to mix with 3 oz ?
You are welcome I thought it would be fun! I put 2 oz in and filled with water up to the 800ml mark. My foam cannon is only in ml.
Great vid Brian! I have ceramic coating. Can I use this product even though I have put other sealants on recently? Never used anything wax based since I got the car last October.
Thank you! Yes you can use it to top anything on your paint!
@68Camaro RS/SS is that because of the ceramic in it or the wax? I use a lot of ceramic coatings for maintenance
@68Camaro RS/SS lol thanks for the tips
I just bought one of those iK foamers. I wonder if it would foam it. It works great with Simple Green and APC cleaners.
Joseph Spires It would be awesome to know how it works for you!
I will let you know.
Joseph Spires Thanks
My results with the iK foamer were similar to yours with the foam cannon.
Joseph Spires Thanks for the update!
What if you add a ph neutral foam with no wax or soap??
I really don't know if that kind of foam even exist
Yair Salazar I was thinking about adding it to a PH neutral soap just to see if it would work like a wash and wax.
I dig it and am gonna do it
Matt Gavin It’s worth trying. You might get better foam than me. It’s at least a good way to get even coverage for the spray and rinse method.
Did you buy the $100 one?! 😏😁 I haven't tried this.. I purchased some of Shiney’s Bull Shine Spray Sealant (along with his Bull Shine Auto Shampoo) & want to try it first! As you was doing this I kept saying HURRY, YOUR SPRAYING $ OUT QUICKLY 😜.
No but I have a new foam cannon i just got to try out. It is identical to Adam's and Chemical Guys foam cannons but more then half the price. Let me know what you think of the Shiney's. Luckily it is a cheap product. haha
Thanks for proving it does not foam. For foaming use the GG Poly Gloss
thomkirby Yeah I made this video just for fun! I wasn’t looking for anything other then just to see what happens.
It is not meant to foam, nor does it need to.
Alt Name That’s why I said it was just for fun to see what might happen.
So you i see 2 different things, first its mixed in your foam cannon and second you use the bottle on the fiam cannon whats the difference?
Timothy Berlinski I just wanted to try something different. Less diluting of water if pulled straight from the bottle.
Ahhh so it works better straight from the bottle. I am looking for a spray protectant for my boat. Its 31 feet so waxing by hand all the time is a hell no lol
Timothy Berlinski For this product yes but this isn’t really meant to sprayed out of a foam cannon. I have the perfect spray product for you. I will send a link to my video where I use it on my Camper.
ua-cam.com/video/pioL_-bm5_4/v-deo.html
Thats funny cause i was literally just looking at that. I use griots stuff and love them all so far.
Why not use a real water activated sealant like carpro hydro2 lite or Gyeon wet coat? I use carpro hydro2 lite on wheels and I'm super pleased with it.
Peach State Shine I’m just using this because I have it. I wouldn’t have bought it to be honest but I had so many requests for it and I try my best to buy products my viewers want to see.
what size hose are you using and size like a 2/8.also if bought separate where can i get one like it.
kvn4 It’s a 1/4 inch 35 foot hose that came with the pressure washer. You can buy the hose separate at HomeDepot or on their website. It’s not rubber though so it can be a pain at times.
I love it
Jeff Roscher Me too!
Why not try it again from the bottle but add about an ounce of actual snow foam too!!?
BigStu Maloo I was thinking about doing that actually. Just haven’t had time
That's is a fast way to apply HCW .
Ouzo Lou Garage Yes it is!
Love your videos. But my dog absolutely hates the noise at the beginning. 🤣🤣 I assume it hurts her ears idk
Mike Smekens Thanks! Haha Yeah I need to make a different intro video anyways. Tell her sorry and give her a treat every time that video comes on. 😂
Have you have a vehicle yet where this product did not make the paint hydrophobic?
On my 4 runner the paint is super slick and beads like crazy.
On the wife’s car it was applied the same way and doesn’t do anything to the paint.
Thanks
PatrolDog Wow that’s crazy! I have only applied it to my truck. Is your wife paint possibly contaminated? That’s the only thing I could think would not allow it to bond.
FAB Automotive Detailing
It is older paint. I’ll decon it tomorrow with iron x then clay it and see how it goes. Anything else you would do?
I’ll let you know.
PatrolDog All I did on the first application was Iron and clay decon and got great results. If there is any oxidation on the paint that will also not allow it to bond. You would need to polish if that’s the case. Hope this helps
FAB Automotive Detailing
I’m guessing there is some oxidation to the paint.
I clayed it and iron x it and reapplied. Still no water beading. I’ll polish it tonight and see if the results change.
PatrolDog Thanks for the update!
Great try, one way to apply it lol
The Car Care Nut Thanks! I thought it would be interesting and fun to try!
“You never know until you try it” .....Did not go over well with girl friend.
Matt Gavin That’s true! Yeah that never goes well with them! 😂 🤣
You may have just found a REALLY easy way to apply this..
Joseph Morganelli It’s a very easy and fast way to apply it. Thanks for watching
FAB Automotive Detailing just walked out to my 2018 and see someone hit the door with their door.. I’m so pissed. I now have a 1 inch white scuff on my black truck. I know what my Saturday will consist of... waiting for my clay bar lube so I can start.
Joseph Morganelli Dang that sucks! I hate how people don’t respect other people’s property. Good luck
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing Tell me about it. I also park further away from any place I go. I have yet to do that a**hole thing where I take up 2 spaces but might just start that. Like I said, I park halfway across the lot just to prevent this so 2 spaces is not "that" bad...
Thanks for trying! You could try using a pump foamer though, I I'm yet to find a chemical that won't foam when used with something like this gloria FM10 1.0 Litre FoamMaster Hand-Operated Foam Sprayer, 3 bar www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B003Y7FYNY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_ETKSCbJREDNE0
Madness :)
Unedited Gamer Thanks!
Lol funny video
MTG Bros Thanks!
FAB: “This video is for fun”
Trolls: “Meguiars paid for this to make people use more product”
Fun video and kinda makes you think if those “spray on waxes” at drive through car washes uses something similar. Most likey not the same quality of product but something mixed with water.
Soap A 😂 It’s funny how people don’t understand it was just for fun! You just have to laugh at the trolls sometimes. The car washes probably use something very close to this but I’m not sure what they use.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing Preach brother. I like these types of random out of the box tests just for fun. Honestly the biggest reason I am addicted to detailing is always trying new products, and using others in ways that you wouldn't think. Keep em coming!
Soap A I to am always trying new products! Thanks I will do my best!
How’s the driveway now? Lol. Like #117
johnnypro Beads water relentlessly! 😆
It looks like the wax the car washes use after u wash ur car
Jose Jimenez It very well could be the same type of wax.
Can I buy your old soap cannon?
Luke Holmberg Sure! I bought a new one anyways. Hit me up on Instagram or Facebook.
That was shaving cream thick
Patrick Tuggles It would have been cool if it was! This video was made just for fun.
Oh yes I know I was just messing with you😂😂
Patrick Tuggles I figured you were! 😂
Lol
👍👍.
don earl Thanks!
How tall are you lol
Justin Croce I am 6’2” tall!
It won’t foam it’s not soap
Dessert Man Like I said in the video it was just for fun! It did foam a little bit and I think it would foam better with my new foam cannon that I didn’t have when I made this video.
03:16
Definitely going to ruin the foam cannon.
Randy Carlisle It didn’t ruin it but if it did i didn’t care because I needed to buy a new one anyways.
Need better music.........
No Brakes It’s hard to find music everyone enjoys. Especially without getting copyright!
..
More money than sense.
Matthew Khan-Dyer Oh how i wish that were true. You do notice I have a Dodge truck right? 😂 It was just for fun and I don’t plan on applying it again so why not.
FAB Automotive Detailing. It gave me a laugh anyway. Can’t get enough detailing vids so keep um coming.
Matthew Khan-Dyer Thanks
LOL...
Swagura Mutsuki What’s with the laughing?
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing I'm surprised someone even tried this out.
Swagura Mutsuki Ok I got ya! It was just for fun. I did find it to be an easier way to apply it evenly though just not straight from the bottle.
Pointless video. Pointless product.
1989pulsar Such a hater! The product works excellent for what it is. Scott sure has brainwashed a lot of people. Sometimes you have to think for yourself.
That's alot of water spot if your truck was in the rain and den sun comes out. .. love this truck the tyres makes it
Mohan Ramnath Yeah but as long as it’s rain water your ok. Hard water spots though you have to worry about that. Thanks I have also always liked these Dakota’s. I think white lettering looks good on trucks.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing your Damm right white writing makes a tyre on a truck in my country where I work its near Plant when rain falls n water beads it's just spots and depressing to look at esp when I wash the day before
